Today’s Tip: Lemon For Cuts And Scrapes

Submitted by anaturalday on Friday, 2 October 2009No Comment

lemon 001Try lemon juice for minor cuts and scrapes! The juice from a lemon contains antimicrobial substances and a high acid content which kills germs all kinds of dead on contact. It may sting like heck, but you are destroying any nasty germs that are trying to worm their way into your body! I sqeezed lemon on a cut recently and the cut had all but disappeared the next day.

The oil from a lemon peel also has anti-infection and anti-inflammatory properties. Rub this oil on a cut and watch the cut disappear at a quicker rate. Happy healing!
